Curation Station…Sweeping the Nation?
Ah, the web… a veritable treasure trove of knowledge, an endless stream of news and information. Actually, it’s more of a flood of facts and opinions that would make even Noah a might uncomfortable. How is the average web surfer to keep up if they want to…let alone the media marketer that must keep up [...]

If you, like I, follow the Minnesota Historical Society (MNHS) Twitter feed (@MNHS) then you might already have stumbled across an interesting lecture which may also have led you to a delightful St. Paul blog. Stumble indeed. It was pure happenstance that I came across a compelling MNHS lecture called, “History of Hip: Yesterday’s Tomorrow” and features [...]

8. February 2010
Wouldn’t it be great to have a chance for a 1:1 mentoring from former Apple evangelist and current VC Guy Kawasaki? Or time with the former CEO of GE, Jack Welch? Or a chance to ask Wired magazine’s Chris Anderson about all the things he sees that might be germane to your startup? Or talk [...]

30. January 2010
Recently I had a chance to join local IP Attorney Ernest Grumbles for an edition of his BP/G Radio Intellectual Property Podcast. Along with his co-host Joe Bennett-Paris we had the chance to talk with Mary K. Engle, Associate Director, FTC Division of Advertising Practices about the infamous Guides for the Use of Endorsements [...]

26. January 2010
It’s unlikely that Apple will name the rumored tablet being announced tomorrow the “iJulio”, but it’s about the only name that hasn’t been floated up as a possibility! There is so much anticipation about what it will be — even though the McGraw-Hill CEO sticking his foot in his mouth and chewing soundly pretty much [...]

17. January 2010
Just as we headed into the weekend, day before yesterday, the anticipated news broke that formally identified the Minnesota firm that’s funding local ecommerce technology startup Alvenda. I had been picking up rumblings of hiring in the suite of offices at 12th and Marquette that Alvenda shares with two other tech firms. I guess we [...]

13. January 2010
How a Twin Cities morning mainstay, The Dave Ryan Show, is using social media. I admit it, I listen to commercial radio quite a bit…yes, even Top 40. I know this is hard for many to admit. There is this pressure that if you don’t listen to NPR all the time you’re some how less [...]

31. December 2009
Two of the Minnov8 Gang took the opportunity this week to get together with former Twin Citian Steve Bendt. As you’ll recall, Steve had been a senior social media manager at Best Buy, and a cofounder of its Blue Shirt Nation employee social network, but left earlier this year for a new opportunity with Microsoft [...]

31. October 2009
I’ve recently started a quest; Find social media success stories that have nothing to do with Motrin Moms or Domino’s Pizza. Face it, though these are interesting examples of the importance of listening and reacting to the conversation,these examples are just plain old! By the way, if you’re doing a presentation on social media and [...]

One of the Twin Cities most active social media participants, Lisa Grimm (LinkedIn; Twitter; Facebook), headed out last week to the Blogworld/New Media Expo held in Las Vegas and two of the four Minnov8 Gang sat down with Lisa to find out what happened, her impressions of the event, and what she took away from it.
